Hexbear federation?


Some context and history on the topic.

I wanted to ask if there is change in opinion on this topic, while slrpnk was down I had account federated with Hexbear and it didn't seem that bad. Yet I way be just propagandised enough to not see the problem.

What do you think?

After a shower you dry off with a towel, obviously.

'Russian bombers are burning en masse' — Ukraine's SBU drones hit 'more than 40' aircraft in mass attack, source claims


An operation by Ukraine's Security Service (SBU) has hit "more than 40" Russian bombers at air bases "in the rear of the Russian Federation," a source in the agency told the Kyiv Independent on June 1.

"Enemy strategic bombers are burning en masse in Russia — this is the result of a special operation by the SBU," the source said.

Video provided by the source shows what appears to be a row of heavy bomber aircraft on fire at an undisclosed location.

in reply to MicroWave

I'm always surprised that you'd leave stuff lying around like that when at war.
in reply to HugeNerd

2500+ miles from the front line? where would you stash your arsenal of strategic bombers?
in reply to Num10ck

Underground xmen style or submarine carrier is the only solution I can think of besides the obvious cloaking field.
in reply to Num10ck

Underground, 5 miles away from the "official" position, while I put decoys everywhere.
in reply to Num10ck

Exactly. The real story here isn't that they destroyed a bunch of bombers, destruction of the enemy's supplies and materiel is normal warfare. The real story is that Ukraine wasn't just being defensive, they went on an aggressive long range offensive, deep into Russian territory. The underlying threat is that if the Ukrainians can hit the Russian bombers, they can hit Russian cities. Russia has been bombing Ukrainian civilian targets, and Ukraine has now proven that they could do it too, if they choose to.
in reply to MicroWave

In general, this is a very good start. Another great operation by Ukraine. Just like the Russian military flagship "Moscow" And our prophecy that Moscow will sink the same way (there is a huge salty sea under Moscow.. therefore...) But we must know that Putin is stubborn, irrational and illogical and he has little time. Little money. He has already started paying in gold for drones... Therefore, all this talk about peace is actually a very alarming signal - Russia will soon attack Poland (Putin always plays big) opening a second front is standard practice for Russia. Especially if russians are sure that Western countries and the USA will do nothing to help Poland. How many times they promised Poland protection and how many times they betrayed Poland... Maybe then Poland will realize that Ukraine is not an enemy but the only true friend of Poland.

IAEA warns Iran has upped enriched uranium production


The international nuclear watchdog said Iran's stocks of 60% enriched uranium have increased to over 400 kilograms. It also criticized Iran for a "lack of cooperation."

The UN's International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) said that Iran has increased its production of enriched uranium in recent months, according to a report seen by multiple news agencies on Saturday.

The news comes amid talks between Iran and the US aimed at curtailing Tehran's nuclear program and preventing it from acquiring nuclear weapons.

in reply to venusaur

how was it not at the least a crime against humanity during war? was what the nazis did not “technically” a crime at some point? no. it was always a crime.

the point is that the US has used nukes, they didn’t even need to, but chose to to “scare” the watching communists next door.

in reply to flandish

I agree with you. It was a crime against humanity. I’m saying g legally it was not a crime then. But to your point, US has proven to be reckless. I think a lot of this goes back to WWI. The western world is afraid of Muslim countries becoming the dominant power again.



Indian Aircraft Bound for London Crashes on Takeoff from Ahmedabad Airport, 244 on Board


No points for guessing which airline this was. I feel like I see a serious Boeing-related incident at least weekly. How long can this go on, man?
in reply to Avatar of Vengeance

I’m going to wait for some more concrete information regarding it’s maintenance schedule before assuming it was because the jet was built by Boeing. A quick search of its registration (VT-ANN) show that it’s been flying for a bit over 12 years now. So unless there was a software update pushed by Boeing it’s likely unrelated to who manufactured the plane.
in reply to PaupersSerenade

Well it would not surprise me considering how things are going in India. They need a revolution more badly than almost any country on earth. I don't even care what kind it is. Maoists, neoliberals, the military, just someone get rid of Hindutva already.

Tehran unravels documents exposing secret IAEA-'Israel' collusion


Iranian media outlets on Thursday published a series of documents that reportedly reveal covert coordination between IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi and "Israel", a collaboration Iranian officials say was designed to politicize the agency’s oversight of Iran’s peaceful nuclear program.

The documents were obtained by Iran’s Ministry of Intelligence in what was described as a high-level intelligence operation, sources revealed to Al Mayadeen.

According to reports by Fars News Agency, the documents expose a long-standing partnership between Grossi and Israeli officials, showing that the IAEA chief repeatedly acted in alignment with Israeli directives regarding Iran’s nuclear file.

The unveiled documents implicate Merav Zafary-Odiz, "Israel’s" permanent representative to the IAEA from 2014 to 2016, as playing a pivotal role in advancing Tel Aviv’s position within the agency. According to the documents, she regularly criticized Iran’s cooperation during Board of Governors meetings and accused the previous IAEA chief, Yukiya Amano, of disseminating “inaccurate” information about Iran’s nuclear progress.

Gaza doctor who lost nine children in Israeli airstrike dies from wounds in same attack


A Palestinian father who had lost nine of his 10 children in an Israeli airstrike has died from wounds sustained in the same attack, local health officials have said.

Hamdi al-Najjar, 40, a doctor at Nasser hospital, was critically injured when Israeli forces bombed the family house in the southern Gaza city of Khan Younis on 23 May, killing nine of his children. He had just returned home after accompanying his wife Alaa, a paediatrician at the Nasser medical complex, to work when the building was struck. He had initially survived alongside his son Adam, 11, who is still in hospital.

Even by the terrible standards of the Gaza conflict, their deaths had shocked the international community.

Footage shared by the director of Gaza’s health ministry and verified by the Guardian showed the burnt, dismembered bodies of Najjar’s children being pulled from the rubble of their house near a petrol station as flames engulfed what remained of the family’s home.

It's like they're trying to create a new generation of terrorists that despise them

Ugh ... as if I didn't already know Netanyahu literally helped keep Hamas in power so people would be less sympathetic to Palestine.

We have some really disgusting people running this world these days. I thought humanity would figure things out eventually but we seem wholly incapable of learning anything from past attrocities for longer than a few generations

in reply to HellsBelle

Shouldn't have launched missiles at Israel on October 7th. I know they've been fighting since 1948, but perhaps that bombing put Israel's barrage into overtime.

Who would have thought that Jews and Muslims can't share the same land.

A fight over the holy land, and people care more about the Muslims than the Jews and their 6 million death genocide during WW2.

Is it because Trump supports Israel?

Is it because the Palestinians are the rightful owners of the holy land?

Either way, you can thank the almighty Great Britain for this holy war and bringing down the ottoman empire.

It's a tough situation for either side. A whole planet and the two contradicting ideologies are trying to inhabit the same land.

Hopefully, both sides find peace.

in reply to Hellsfire29

Everybody sucks here. Neither side deserves the land, nor has a moral upper hand. They should both be shunned permanently.
in reply to Linktank

No, Israel sucks here, the Palestinians have the moral upper hand, and the Israeli apartheid state has no right to exist. They're committing a genocide, and have been ethnically cleansing the Palestinian people for over three quarters of a century. The Palestinians have been exercising their right to resist the ethnonationalist, apartheid, genocidal, colonial occupiers, which is perfectly legitimate under international law.

in reply to Hellsfire29

They lived together fine for many years. People are concerned about Palestinians because there is accepted scholarly consensus that they are being killed en masse in a genocide waged by Israel and supported materially by the US and it's allies. Likely at least 100,000 Palestinian people have been killed since October 2023.This isn't a competition for who is the most worthy victim historically between Muslims and Jews, innocent families, entire neighborhoods are being obliterated by Israel right now. Thousands of children are at risk of starving because of the total blockade by Israel. Many Jewish people disagree with what is happening and would prefer to share the space in peace.

Supporting Palestine and recognizing this as genocide has nothing to do with recognizing the horrors of the holocaust and feeling sympathy for the Jewish victims of antisemitism, they are not contradictory positions.

in reply to tocopherol

Tbf, not everyone needs to get informed or involved with issues like this. Realistically, many people would be better off engaging minimally with social media and focusing on their own health and wellbeing and just generally embracing casual anti-racism, rather than trying to internalise it.

Una giungla di fenomeni.


(167)

(MR)

Nel cuore impenetrabile della giungla malese, dodici intrepidi avventurieri affrontano un viaggio estremo, tra fango, sudore e liane, alla ricerca di un montepremi da dividersi alla fine del percorso. Ma non sono esploratori, non sono ex militari, e no, nemmeno boy scout. Sono... professionisti digitali. O qualcosa del genere.

I loro titoli? Un tripudio di inglesismi, abbreviazioni e parole che, messe insieme, sembrano generate da un algoritmo ubriaco: content creator, consulente creativo, digital strategist, autore di contenuti web, project manager di progetti fluidi (ma quali?). Alcuni sono “ex manager”, che non si capisce bene se vuol dire che hanno lasciato la scrivania o se è la scrivania ad aver lasciato loro.

Li vediamo marciare tra le zanzare e i serpenti come se dovessero raggiungere il Wi-Fi più vicino, mentre il sudore scioglie l’ultima traccia di ceretta alle sopracciglia e i loro zaini sembrano contenere più prodotti skincare che strumenti di sopravvivenza. Il vero pericolo, però, non è la natura selvaggia: sono le tentazioni.

Ad ogni bivio, una nuova prova morale: una bistecca tomahawk da 240 euro, una suite con aria condizionata e minibar, un massaggio balinese a otto mani. Se uno di loro cede – e, spoiler: cedono spesso – il montepremi si riduce. Tutti si indignano, ma poi, alla tentazione successiva, cambiano idea. Perché rinunciare a una Jacuzzi in mezzo alla giungla solo per lasciare agli altri qualche euro in più?

(MR2)

E qui sorge spontanea una domanda: se questi sono i lavori del futuro, noi che ci svegliavamo alle sette per timbrare il cartellino abbiamo sbagliato tutto? Forse. Ma resta il dubbio: cosa fanno, esattamente, queste persone?

Uno dice: “Creo contenuti emozionali per il web”. Che potrebbe voler dire scrivere una poesia, girare un reel con la nonna, o semplicemente filmarsi mentre beve un cappuccino con lo sguardo assorto. Un altro è “strategic planner esperienziale”, cioè, se abbiamo capito bene, organizza eventi dove la gente si sente ispirata a investire in sé stessa. Un terzo “ha lasciato la finanza per seguire il cuore”, e oggi racconta la propria trasformazione interiore tramite podcast. Spoiler: la finanza sembra sentirsi benissimo anche senza di lui.

Certo, i tempi cambiano, e non tutti devono sapere riparare un tubo o accendere un fuoco con due sassi. Ma in certi momenti – tipo quando piove da tre giorni e bisogna costruire un riparo – l’assenza di skill pratiche diventa più evidente del fard sbavato sulle guance. E la giungla, quella vera, non fa sconti ai CEO di sé stessi.

Alla fine, mentre il montepremi si assottiglia e le prove si moltiplicano, resta solo una certezza: nella giungla digitale di oggi, l’unica vera sopravvivenza è farsi notare. Anche se l’unica cosa che si è costruita, finora, è un profilo LinkedIn pieno di parole che non significano nulla.

Egypt detains 200 Gaza protesters, including about 30 from Netherlands


Egyptian authorities have detained approximately 200 pro-Palestinian activists from more than 40 countries, including about 30 from the Netherlands, ahead of a planned protest march to the Gaza border. Many Dutch participants reportedly said they were subjected to “unjust and humiliating treatment,” including being held for hours without food, water, medical care, or information.

Approximately 100 Dutch nationals had traveled to Egypt for the march, representing a diverse range of backgrounds, according to the Dutch public broadcaster NOS. Among them were students, teachers, healthcare workers, retirees and artists. Organizers said 18 members of the European Parliament were also expected to join the protest.

One of those detained was the sister of Mark van Rennes, the captain of the protest ship Madleen, who is currently imprisoned in Israel. She was among approximately 30 Dutch activists deported from Egypt to Istanbul, Turkey. She has since confirmed her arrival in Istanbul and is expected to land at Amsterdam Schiphol Airport around 2 p.m., likely accompanied by many of the other deported Dutch citizens, NOS reported.

Is aviation getting more dangerous? Anyone in the field know? We've had multiple crashes this year when we had gone multiple years without a fatal crash in the 2010s.
in reply to HiddenLayer555

Not in the field, but I think it depends. It's for sure more dangerous on average if we consider the entire world, but I feel like that's mostly because of certain areas (US w/ toothless FAA and ATC shortage, Russia with the war&part shortages etc, ...) and new Boeing aircraft.

Flying is still the safest mode of travel per km, and if you're flying Airbus/Embraer/COMAC/pre-2010 Boeing it's likely as safe as it was a decade ago. However it kinda sucks due to all the greenhouse gas emissions.

Paranoid Kash Patel polygraphs FBI agents in MAGA purge


The FBI has devolved into chaos amid Director Kash Patel’s ongoing efforts to rid the agency of staff disloyal to the Trump administration.

Patel is now subjecting senior executives to polygraphs at a “rapid rate,” The New York Times reports, as part of a wider effort to stamp out embarrassing news leaks from within the agency.

One senior official told the Times in its exposé that he was forced out last month after being subjected to a lie detector test. He believes he was targeted because he hadn’t told Patel about his wife taking a knee during the 2020 protests against police brutality in Washington, D.C.

in reply to MicroWave

Is the FBI really so full of abject cowards that they're all just rolling over and taking this? The US is so boned.
in reply to MicroWave

Ok I'm not going to entertain the idea that the actual FBI doesn't know how polygraphs work and how effective they really are.

This is a clear excuse to just oust whomever they don't like.



Trump was not informed of Ukraine attack on Russia


Trump was not informed of a recent Ukrainian attack on Russia, The Hill’s sister network NewsNation confirmed Sunday.

According to NewsNation’s Tanya Noury, an administration official said the president was not given a heads-up about the drone attack that a Ukrainian security official alleged destroyed more than 40 planes well within Russian territory, according to The Associated Press.

https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/5327835-trump-ukraine-attack-russia/

According to the latest reports, he still doesn't know they happened because he regularly doesn't attend his own security briefings. Not to worry though, he'll be fully briefed this evening when Fox and Friends covers it tonight.


George Stephanopoulos Rips Trump for Monetizing Presidency


George Stephanopoulos, on Sunday, ripped President Donald Trump — highlighting the “unprecedented money-making by a sitting president and his family.”

In a scorching show open on ABC’s This Week, Stephanopoulos called out the Trumps for cashing in on the office — while noting that those who are filling the Trump family coffers are benefitting from “official actions” taken by the White House.

“The scale is staggering,” Stephanopoulos said. “President Trump and his family are making hundreds of millions, potentially billions of dollars — as Trump and his administration take official actions that benefit contributors and investors.”

The ABC News anchor called out Trump’s “pardons to tax cheats,” and various windfalls originating from the Trump family’s foray into cryptocurrency.

"Official Actions". Two very important words, because thanks to the Supreme Court even a future Congress can't even investigate this, much less do anything about it. And forget about this congress lifting a god damned finger, outside of the middle one they keep giving to the people who voted for them.

in reply to Nightwingdragon

I don't think that scotus ruling does bar congress from investigating stuff actually, the supreme court doesn't have jurisdiction over impeachments. That's not to say they will, just that I'm pretty sure they can.

Don't give Trump what he wants


For the protests Trump is hoping for one of two outcomes:

  1. The protests escalate and he seizes power just like Hitler did: theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…
  2. People roll over, stay silent and comply with the administration out of fear.

If fact I wonder if #1 would be more ideal for Trump because it would be a unifying cause for Republicans who are currently divided and soon face economic uncertainty. Remember that Trump's polling was worst in April during times of greatest economic uncertainty. However let's not give him either of those. Let's humiliate Trump by making all the people he brought in, in hopes of escalating useless and bored. Imagine the pictures of them standing around with nothing to do. It will foil the well used dictator playbook for seizing power.

The reality is a vast, vast majority of the protests are going to be peaceful no matter what. The problem is that the media even the mainstream media will focus on any violence there is so we need we really need to be as perfect as we can so let's do everything we can to ensure that every single protest remains as peaceful as possible and also take charge of the narrative too.

What we need to do is protest peacefully and lawfully, be a little more spread out, stay away from situations that are violent. I'd also recommend staying away from police and military. Use the time to expose Trump's corruption and educate people and bring new people to the movement and maybe even help register people to vote. By building a broad peaceful coalition we can reach even those who are stuck in echo chambers where they will only see what little violence there is and not notice the peaceful protests. The only way to break through is to protest peacefully in your city so they can see that protests are peaceful or get previously neutral people involved in protesting who will talk to their friends who will in-turn talk to their friends and so on eventually reaching those in echo chambers.

I'd recommend bringing American flags, say we love our country, we believe ALL Americans have equal rights and that we support the constitution and upholding American tradition like separation of power, that no one is above the law and that there are no kings in America. The more people who do that the more chances the media will be forced to show this which disrupts the false narrative that we're not patriotic, in fact I feel we're way more patriotic than the people who still worship traitors like the confederates, those who want to destroy our country and those who feel that only Americans who have the right skin color, gender and socioeconomic status deserve rights.

Online and in person we must strongly push back against those who call for violence, balkanization or civil war. These things will be devastating to everyone. I can tell you that I'm a blue dot in a red state, I have lots of friends and family members who are as well. Nearly all of us are too poor and too deeply rooted in our communities to move. This could literally be deadly for us and millions of innocent people who don't support what's going on now and even if not deadly lots of us could one day be subject to a oppressive regime in a spin-off of part of America, that would be horrible. If we make it to the midterms we can win enough elections and make our country better in all 50 states peacefully and legally.

Remember: broad peaceful coalition, bring more and more people over, eventually even some Trump supporters will see the light and we'll resolve this peacefully. I know we can do it!

PS: Hands-off put together a list of articles about de-escalation training here: actionnetwork.org/user_files/u…

The YouTube link in the PDF wasn't stripped of tracking so use this link to watch their de-escalation training: youtu.be/_Pgmn9QRr48

I also saw an interesting idea of having monitors in high visibility vests and using whistles whenever they see even initial signs of violence, in the original suggestion they advised sitting but I read some persuasive comments that mentioned sitting down could be dangerous, instead I think leaving is the best approach.

Like, why did you manufacture this intractable problem by mandating clothing and shaming nudity in the first place?


You think humans invented clothing because of shame?

That's completely backwards, we invented clothing for protection, and not seeing everything all the time led to shame when someone could see us.

Like, I'm pretty sure hermit crabs feel something similar to shame when they don't have a shell, they need something to drive them to not only protect themselves, but to ensure they can reproduce and raise their young. That's why humans instinctually get weird about exposed genitals and boobs, those are the most important parts of a human from an evolutionary perspective.

Culture is just that which a group says/does. If you value the well-being of humans then you can evaluate if an action is good or not. "Respect" of culture need not come into the solution of how best it is to act.

European ISPs Complain About 'Disproportionate' Pirate Site Blocking


Internet providers are increasingly tasked in the role of anti-piracy enforcers and instructed to block pirate websites and services. In Europe, court-ordered blockades are now commonplace, but ISPs are cautious when it comes to further expansion. In a recent submission to the EU Commission, EuroISPA, which represents over 3,300 ISPs, complains about "disproportionate" blocking measures, as recently seen in Italy, Spain and elsewhere.
in reply to 0x0

That urgency of blocking websites should be used to take down CSAM and truly dangerous content, not piracy imo. But they only care about money as usual.
in reply to RiQuY

lets be honest; some of the biggest proponents of csam are executives in boardrooms of major media companies.

sarà rottaggio imprevisto, quando continuo e inspiegabile


In questi giorni, il rotting sta lievemente imperversando. Ahimè!!! A questo punto della mattina sono già le 12 passate, e io non ho ancora fatto nulla di rilevante, il che è greve e preoccupante, visto il contesto ultimo presente. Un sintomo evidente della cosa è che qui i post stanno uscendo a fatica, in questi ultimi giorni, ma appunto non perché io stia facendo molto altro di intrigante; i minuti giusto scorrono così, senza che sia possibile capire precisamente il perché. 💀

Ieri mattina addirittura mi sono in qualche modo svegliata quasi alle 13, al punto che ho dovuto zompare colazione e ho direttamente pranzato, perché ops. Questo è accaduto perché, durante la notte (o meglio, la mattina, visto che sarà successo al massimo qualche quarto d’ora prima del mio vero risveglio), ho sognato di svegliarmi ed alzarmi mentre che fossero le 11 e qualcosa, come altre mattine… di conseguenza, evidentemente il mio cervello credeva che io fossi già perfettamente resuscitata e, allora mi ha fatta rimanere fisicamente e mentalmente lì nel letto, finché non è arrivato mio padre probabilmente preoccupandosi sotto sotto di se fossi morta. 🦗

Sempre meglio di ieri sera o stamattina, però, visto che rispettivamente nel primo caso mi era venuto mal di testa senza fare niente (ma almeno sono andata a dormire un po’ prima), e nel secondo mi è salita l’allergia forte con il muco potente e persino la sciorda pesante. E, appunto, è un pochino imbarazzante che, nonostante io mi sia svegliata alle 10 stamattina, non ho ancora fatto praticamente nulla per cui valga la pena che questa giornata consumi le mie energie vitali (cioè, per cui valga la pena non essere rimasta nel letto fino ad ora di pranzo anche stavolta, ma in questo caso volontariamente). 🥱
"Can't wait for summer!!"Also me all summerVabbè, in sintesi ho il presentimento che in parte questa possa essere l’estate. Non che io l’abbia mai desiderata in effetti, a differenza di altre persone che prima la vogliono ma poi quando arriva si lamentano, quindi tipo non è colpa mia se mi fa un pochino questo effetto qui, però è comunque seccante e per certi aspetti problematico. Se avete idee per ridurre la marciscenza però, compatibilmente a quello che posso fare e che mi piace o potrebbe piacermi, accetto ovviamente suggerimenti… 🙏




I'm sick of people not accepting the current American rule


I've seen a number of people trying to deny the truth, and it's honestly sickening at this point. How bad do things have to get for people to acknowledge what I recognized on the night of November 5th? People really cannot handle reality as it is.

essell doesn't like this.

Why after Hurricane season? Does he think this is the last hurricane season ever? If you’re gonna cut it you clearly don’t care so why wait?
in reply to But_my_mom_says_im_cool

Probably because Acting head of FEMA said he wasn't aware U.S. has a hurricane season, sources say, so they are confused.
